Yeah...I'll pass.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - zdunklee - 03-22-2010
Haha, will Snoop call GR East Lansing this time like he did at Rothbury in 08...seriously the only one worth watching is Pop Evil...and I can see them at the intersection for less than that.

The food and drink interests me. The musical acts, not so much. And what the crap is WGRD doing putting on a show with Snoop?
Re: Wingstock 2010 - potthole - 04-01-2010
Anybody catch the announcement about who the new addition will be? Sure hope it's not as underwhelming as the other acts.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - Biff - 04-01-2010
Drowning Pool.
I would have bet on Kid Rock.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - potthole - 04-01-2010
Drowning Pool? What is it with bands that are years past their prime?

Rather than get multiple second-rate bands they should've just gotten one headliner. Bring in one or two lesser-known openers. Have 'em all play a full set, and viola, a party that lasts all evening and into the night.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - upperdeckercourt - 04-01-2010
Good, I'm glad other people think this will be terrible. The only one I'd remotely want to see is Snoop, and I don't even like rap.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - potthole - 04-02-2010
The eating and drinking sounds awesome. The only reason I'm not too keen on Snoop is because WGRD isn't a rap station, so it makes no sense for them to bring in a rap artist. I'd be interested in seeing Snoop, but it's just goofy for im to be playing a show put on by a rock station.
Re: Wingstock 2010 - landmammaldolphin - 04-02-2010
I'd like to see Drowning Pool now that Ryan McCombs is their lead singer. I saw them once in the past and wasn't all that impressed but I liked McCombs when he was with Soil. I'll probably just wait until they are at the Orbit Room for free and then go and spend $10 per beer to see them there.
Otherwise I have no desire to see this show and I agree with Potthole on them bringing in a major headliner. They could have invited one major opener and then given a couple of the past winners of their local band contest a good audience and let them open for them as well.
